Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
So many kinds, where can we start?
We like them dumb and we like them smart
I like the ones with the pretty eyes
Well I like all kinds of guys
Stop
What happened?
How about the ones we especially like?
Which ones?
You know the ones with the cars that go
I hear you
Hit it
It was me and the posse with Bunny D
We were cruising in the Jag or the Lamborghini
When low and behold there appeared a mirage
He was hooking up a car in his daddy's garage
We stopped short, did a double take
He was looking so fly, I thought I wasn't awake
He was obviously hooking up bass, I assume
But then he turned a little button and the car went boom
We like the cars, the cars that go boom
We're Tigra and Bunny and we like the boom
We like the cars, the cars that go boom
We're Tigra and Bunny and we like the boom
We like them short, and we like them tall
We like them one, and we like them all
They're always adding speakers when they find the room
'Cause they know we love the guys with the cars that go boom
And see my boyfriend really knows where it's at
He's got fifty inch woofers all along the back
He makes a comment on going to my room
But I'd rather stay out with his car that goes boom
We like the cars, the cars that go boom
We're Tigra and Bunny and we like the boom
We like the cars, the cars that go boom
We're Tigra and Bunny and we like the boom
Now if your car ain't got it, go out and get it
We like the boom and don't you forget it
So turn down the treble, and flaunt your bass
So your car can be heard almost any place
'Cause when you're in the street you can't go far
Without hearing the boom pouring out your car
So if your speaker's weak, then please turn it off
'Cause we like the cars that sound so tough
We like the cars, the cars that go boom
We're Tigra and Bunny and we like the boom
We like the cars, the cars that go boom
We're Tigra and Bunny and we like the boom
Everybody just beep your horn if you hear us
(Beep your horn if you hear us)
Beep your horn if you hear us
(Just) Just beep your horn if
Now clap, hit it
Beep, beep beep beep beep (come on everybody beep)
Hey, hey hey
Beep, beep (come on everybody beep)
Oh, oh oh beep
Beep
I said beep
Beep a little louder if you hear us
I said beep a little harder if you hear us, ah
We like them dumb and we like them smart
I like the ones with the pretty eyes
Well I like all kinds of guys
Stop

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen

The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
This has to be one of the worst pop songs and videos ever made. It ranks up there (or DOWN there, as the case may be) with We Built This City by (Jefferson) Starship. Not only can they not rap or sing worth a crap, the lyrics are not at all interesting. I'd call them "popular amateurs."
